Stop Scrubbing. Start Washing.
The microfiber washing bag engineered for white sneakers. Deep-cleans in one machine cycle while protecting shape, finish and colour.
- One shoe per bag for a balanced, even clean
- Protects your washing machine from impact
- Deep-cleaning microfiber technology — no scrubbing
The science
Will my shoes actually get clean?
WYTE bags use high-density microfiber that generates thousands of micro-agitation points around your shoe — lifting embedded dirt from mesh, canvas and rubber without the scrubbing that breaks down materials.
- Microfiber density: 200,000 fibres/cm²
- Water-activated — eno harsh detergents needed
- Works with any washing machine, 30–40 °C
If your shoes don't come out cleaner than when they went in, we'll refund you. No photos, no forms, no questions.

Why white shoes always go yellow
It's not about willpower or the right scrubbing technique. The material itself works against you.
Oxidation turns white rubber yellow
UV exposure and air contact cause rubber midsoles to oxidise. Scrubbing spreads the discolouration rather than lifting it.
Mesh and canvas trap dirt at depth
Surface wipes shift surface-level grime but leave embedded particles. Those are what make shoes look grey after a few wears.
Wrong machine cycle damages structure
Unprotected shoes bounce against drum walls. The collar delaminates, the toe box creases, and the glue at the sole weakens.
3 steps
How it works
-
One shoe per bag
Drop a single shoe into the WYTE bag and seal the zip. One bag per shoe ensures equal weight distribution and maximum contact between the microfiber and the upper.
Step 1 photo -
Machine wash at 30–40 °C
Use a gentle cycle. The bag's cushioned shell absorbs impact against the drum while the inner microfiber lining does the cleaning work.
Step 2 photo -
Air-dry and done
Remove shoes from bags, stuff with paper towel to hold shape, and leave to air-dry. No heat, no shrinking, no sole separation.

- High-density microfiber lining 200,000 fibres/cm² lift embedded dirt without abrasion
- Sealed YKK zip No loose laces or any tongues catching on drum fins
- Rated to 200+ wash cycles The bag outlasts the season — reuse it for every clean
Every angle covered
Six reasons sneakerheads won't go back
Machine-clean in 40 minutes
From dirty to dry in under an hour. No pre-soak, no waiting overnight.
Protects shape and sole bond
Cushioned shell stops shoes hitting the drum. Collars stay crisp, soles stay bonded.
Removes odour as well as dirt
Hot water at 40 °C kills odour-causing bacteria that surface wipes never reach.
Safe for Air Max, Foam, Canvas
Tested on Nike, Adidas, New Balance, Vans and Converse. No sole delamination in 500+ test washes.
Works with any detergent
Use whatever's in your machine already — liquid, powder, pod. The bag does the heavy lifting.
Reusable for 200+ washes
One bag per shoe, every season. Built to outlast the shoes it's cleaning.

“Bought 2 bags — one per shoe. 40-minute cycle at 30 °C and they came out cleaner than when I bought them. The midsoles are completely white again.”Julien T. · Verified buyer
“Sceptical at first. Then tried it on a pair of grey-ish Converse I'd basically written off. Now they're proper white. Can't explain it, but it works.”Amara D. · Verified buyer
“Bought the 4-bag pack. Use it every two weeks on different pairs. The bags are still in perfect shape after 3 months. Brilliant product.”Pieter V. · Verified buyer
“The canvas uppers on my Vans were basically grey. One cycle later, white. The rubber sole stripe is white again too. Didn't expect that.”Sofie K. · Verified buyer
“Was terrified to machine wash my Jordans. Used the bag on the midsole-only recommendation — came out spotless. No sole separation.”Maxim R. · Verified buyer
Common questions
Frequently asked questions
WYTE bags are safe for canvas, knit mesh, leather (smooth only), and synthetic uppers. Avoid suede, nubuck, and patent leather — these materials shouldn't go near water.
Yes. The cushioned bag shell prevents the impact that damages Air units and gel inserts. Use a cold or 30 °C gentle cycle for any shoe with foam or air cushioning.
No. Use whatever liquid or powder detergent you'd normally use. Avoid fabric softener — it can coat the microfiber and reduce effectiveness over time.
One shoe per bag. This gives the microfiber full contact with the upper and ensures even weight distribution in the drum. Use two bags for a pair.
Each bag is rated to 200+ wash cycles. At once a week, that's nearly four years per bag.

Our story
Built by sneaker people, for sneaker people
WYTE started with a ruined pair of Air Force 1s and a machine set to the wrong temperature. We spent two years testing materials before landing on a microfiber density that actually lifts embedded dirt — not just surface grime. The bag you're holding is the result of 47 material iterations and over 500 test washes.
We're based in Ghent. We ship from Belgium. And we stand behind every bag with a 365-day guarantee because we've done the washing — we know it works.
